Friends For Friends

Charity description

Friends for Friends supports people with a learning disability through friendship.

People with a learning disability can often be socially isolated, apart from the community instead of part of it. Friends for Friends is a charity based in Harrow that brings them into the community by developing friendships with ordinary people. For over 25 years we have been creating friendships between people just like you, and people with a learning disability. Some friendships are on a one to one basis, and sometimes people meet in groups. It varies depending on what people are comfortable with. Once a month there is a "One to One" club night with games music and refreshments. Time and time again we have seen people blossom within these friendships, and our volunteer friends often comment on how much they get out of the friendship themselves.We need volunteers and we need money. Your help will be very much appreciated!
